It kills self esteem and causes overthinking. You’ll even be afraid to express yourself. I was so cautious to the point that when my teacher wanted to write a report on my result sheet, she’ll always use the remark, he’s always quiet. I was intelligent and invisible and I hated it.

This is me growing and having to go through what u are experiencing.😓 Everything u wrote above depicts me to the tee.

Growing up my mom was very strict raising me and my siblings And up till today it has imparted and affected my life negative more than the positive
She will beat us at the slightest mistake, errors or reports she hear from neighbor or people ( church ,sch etc) who reports us to her. She wouldn't listen to ur side of what happen even when the person twisted or lie to her.
If someone provoke me or my siblings that leads to physical exchange. If she hears of it u are done for. Despite hearing from witnesses that u did no wrong she will still discipline us harshly.
Having friends was a big issues with her to the extend u can't even go out with said friends or socialize with anyone even from the same neighborhood. Her excuse is that they will corrupt us. What bullshit!
Her heavyhanded upbringing affected me till today to my adulthood. Am a recluse, keep to myself a lot😭. Socializing became a big issue and it even affect my relationship with the opposite sex.😓
Can't say much of my dad. Never had that fatherly bond with him and he never was there when I needed him.😞
Pray never to have them as parents ever if I were to come to this life again.😠😠😠

Strict parenting has more negative impact than positive in the lives of their children.
But I would justly put it at 50/50. Some children raise by strict parents turn out good and other turn out bad.
Growing up, there was one family in my neighborhood where their mom was extremely strict, so strict it be better to be raise by the military than raise by this woman.
Funny enough her boys despite her hard hand upbringing still did engage in vices that u be shock when u get to know of their upbringing.
These resulted in her children mostly the boys to shun their mother and shower their luv on their dad who wasn't strict but raise them right. If it were left to the father those guys would have turn out right.
Sometimes strict upbringing do more harm than good to kids

Small small people will resort to having safe box n mini vault in there house if they mess with their funds in their accounts.

If an account holder with any bank has no job but have money in his/ her account, are they going to be paying task from the little they have in that account?
I believe tax should be deducted from individual that earn thru jobs they do, not taxin those who have no jobs. And I believe that people who have jobs and businesses should be the ones paying tax and not those that are struggling to even get at least a little going for them.

Call the pastor name out! Don't cover for him let everyone know who he is starting from the church. Oga expose them. Do DNA test on all ur three kids NOW! delay is dangerous. God alone knows who truly serves him. May he strengthen u with wisdom to navigate through this.

I had a chat with a friend in my neighborhood two months back and he told me that his girlfriend told him if in the future they married or not that she will have a child by him.
I was shock to hear this, though wasn't surprise cos it is almost like a norm now. Women seeded by their formal lover and pinning it on their unsuspecting husbands.
All men should save for paternity test immediately after marriage or when their wives get pregnant and get it discreetly done immediately she puts to bed.
Infact it should be made compulsory for all couple to have it done after the birth of every child they have.

Zooposki:

Mainland or island lagos?so I can know how best to advice you on the next step cz there's a MAF program for BAND A customers where u are entitled to free meter as long as u open a new account on the same address seperating urself from the other account.

I stay on mainland surulere to be precise around lawanson to Masha axis. How do I go about getting a separate meter? Having this same problem. But tenants using meter is just 3 to 5 and getting them to pay for recharge is hell. Need a separate meter pls help

No bra no entry for the ladies and no briefs, boxers etc for guys no entry 😁 make the thing balance 🤔. If Dem dey check the ladies, it must also apply to the guys.
Imagine guys going around in trousers n shorts without underwears to keep their John Thomas in place... It is very bad 😞 bad I say. Abeg dress decently please.
Like the saying goes; ur dressing determine how you will be address( u will be address (judge, view, seen etc) by the way u dress)

Mr seun, pls how can one close their account on nairaland? I just want to close this account permanently and all information deleted. Am fed up of these forum and want to leave thanks!

Keep your secrets to urself. The person you confide in might expose it or use it against you.
Make friends but apply wisdom
Talk less and listen more

Please don't ever disclose ur income and ur account especially how much u earn to ur immediate family members.
And if you ever have a business that is booming, pls and pls limit ur family members influence and if it is a company, don't ever make them or ever think of creating board of directors and putting them there. U just dug ur grave by doing that.

judewrites:
Telling people your destiny and future plans....like Joseph did to his brothers.

Na these advice sure pass oh. Na so I open mouth from my early teenage years dey Yan my future plans to my family members especially my popsy relatives. Pls, keep ur future plans and ambitions to urself. Even ur siblings might be a barrier in ur life.

For me chicken no dey go well with egusi soup infact the soup go dey somehow for my palate.
Prefer fish especially combos including stockfish, dry catfish and other assorted dry fish and also add ponmo and goat meat inside the soup.
Another thing people fall to understand is that there is no one way of cooking the soup. Different people, different ethnicity, different styles, different condiments with the egusi as the focal point.
For me I prefer my egusi prepare with bitterleaf, fish, goat meat, ponmo and periwinkles without shells. I don't fancy egusi with waterleaf, chicken, tomatoes, even ugu leaves.

Most the children be in that meeting for adults? Both parents and elders there must be mad😡.
The man no Sabi and the woman should have told him she is not satisfied sexually. That way they both can work out how to improve and spice up there sex life.
He should thank God na toys she use instead of the real thing.

Today on this good friday I chop better egusi with goat meat, stockfish, dry fish etc inside with better eba.
All these no eat meat on good Friday na fallacy. Before anyone critique me, am a Christian that knows the Bible.

Codes151:
The drunk out performed every governor ever in South East as governor.

Outperformed every minister ever from south east as minister in one 1 tenure.

Ask yourself, if Obi or any south easterner come out as president with Wike, between , sincerely, who will you vote for?

Don't mind the idiot. From 1999 till date what tangible lasting projects have all the southeast governors done. Wike outperform every single one of them past and present.
And which worthy Candidate can they produce to rule the country if given the chance? NONE.

Hurried Lagos-Calabar highway on an unforgiving terrain.
--------------------------------------------------------
But your Tinubu kinsman is hurriedly building a Lagos-Calabar Coastal highway to ease further siphon of the wealth of the southsouth/southeast to the SW region.
ShophistiWretched lot. Specialists in foolish blackmail of other Nigerians. You used Oduduwa Republic agitators to blackmail Fulani to hand power over to Tinubu. Every time pressure is on President Tinubu, Oduduwa Republic agitators get despatched to 10 Downing Street in London to demand for Oduduwa Republic.
C
.

Which wealth is tinubu siphoning from southsouth to Southwest region? So building a
coastal road to alleviate the nightmarish suffering Niger deltans endure while passing thru ur erosion ridden southeastern states is a bad thing he did abi? No wonder u igbos were the first to kick against the projects from the onset. Sw and ss did not complain but we're happy about the project.

igbosarejews:
I wonder how I d.iotic you people can be, a whole of Igbos with their doing, worship south south. People wey no reach the slippers of Igbo race. Meanwhile, it's a must that Igbos in the so called south south must align with Igbos in south east. Una go claim say January 15 1966 coup, was carried out by an Igbo man, yet failed to tell the world, that the leader and the coup plotter major Kaduna Chukwuma Nzeogwu was from the so called south south, Okpanam in Asaba.

U are mad I say mad..u saying the ss people no reach slippers of Igbo race, but u are ass licking ss slippers with forced attacheism.
South South or Niger Delta have no alignment with igbos. If igbos ancestry most be trace u will find out that most igbos in Niger Delta regions were igbos who left South East long ago and settle in the ss region, intermarried and naturalise there with the natives there.
Igbos have no origin roots in Niger Delta so stop forcing urselves or claiming ss are igbos, they are not.
The only reasons u igbos are claiming Rivers State is the oil there, claiming benues is the fertile agricultural land there. But both states refuses to alligns nor acknowledge u igbos with them. SS is save alligning with yoruba, hausa than with igbos.
